Caution!
Application of Dust Control Equipment
Combustible materials such as buffing lint, paper, wood, aluminum or steel dust, weld
fume, or flammable solvents represent fire or explosion hazards. Use special care when
selecting and operating all dust or fume collection equipment when combustible
materials are present to protect workers and property from damage due to fire and/or
explosion. Consult and comply with National and Local Codes relating to fire or
explosion and all other appropriate codes when determining the location and operation
of dust or fume collection equipment.
When combustible materials are present, consult with an installer of fire extinguishing
systems familiar with these types of fire hazards and local fire codes for
recommendations and installation of fire extinguishing and explosion protection systems.
Donaldson dust collection equipment is not equipped with fire extinguishing or
explosion protection systems.
DO NOT allow sparks, cigarettes or other burning objects to enter the hood or duct of
any dust or fume control equipment as these may initiate a fire or explosion.
For optimum collector performance, use only Donaldson replacement parts.

Description
CAUTION!
Misuse or modification of this
equipment may result in personal
injury.
Do not misuse or modify.
Operation
The RF cleaning system automatically cleans each
bag at least once every four minutes. During normal
operation, dust-laden air enters the dirty-air inlet.
The scroll-style inlet develops a cyclonic airflow
causing heavier particulate to drop directly into the
hopper. The air continues through an internal flow
straightener that evenly distributes the dust-laden
air around the filter bags. Dust collects on the
outside surface of each filter bag forming a dust
cake. Clean, filtered air passes through the filter
bags, into the clean-air plenum, and discharges
through the clean-air outlet.

Hoisting Information
1. Use all lifting points provided.
2. Use clevis connectors, not hooks, on lifting slings.
3. Use spreader bars to prevent damage to units
casing.
4. Check the Specification Control drawing for
weight and dimensions of the unit,
subassemblies, and components to ensure
adequate crane capacity.
5. Allow only qualified crane operators to lift the
equipment.
6. Refer to applicable OSHA regulations and local
codes when using cranes, forklifts, and other
lifting equipment.
7. Lift unit and accessories separately, and
assemble after unit is in place.
8. Use drift pins to align holes in section flanges
during assembly.
CAUTION!
Standard Equipment
All welded units can be lifted directly from the
truck to the prepared site. Bolt-together units are
assembled at the site. A general approach to set up
is as follows:
1. Prepare site.
4. Level hopper.
5. Tighten all hardware securing legs, cross braces,
hopper gussets, and foundation anchor bolts.
Note: Tighten all hardware before removing
crane.

Air Supply
A positive-displacement blower provides the air
required for filter cleaning. The blower is sized for
each unit based on the model and airflow
requirements. Follow the installation instructions
provided with the positive-displacement blower.
Note: Turn the blower ON then OFF to check for
proper rotation by referencing the rotation
arrow located on the belt guard. Proper
rotation is counterclockwise.
To reverse rotation, three-phase power supply:
Turn electrical power OFF at source and switch any
two leads on the output-side of the blower motor
starter.

CAUTION!
The solid-state timer requires
a 105 to 135-Volt, customer-supplied
power supply.
Note: Do not mount the solid-state timer on the
unit. Mechanical vibration can damage the
control.
Solenoid Connection
The unit is equipped with a 115-V solenoid valve
that controls the diaphragm valve, which cleans the
filters.
Wire the solenoid to the solid-state timer following
the wiring diagram shown or the wiring diagram
supplied with the unit. Filter life and cleaning
operation will be affected if not wired correctly.

Start-Up
1. Start the positive-displacement cleaning blower
and check for counterclockwise rotation.
2. Turn power to timer and solenoid ON.
3. Check solenoid and diaphragm valve operation.
4. Adjust the timer to allow the cleaning system
pressure to rise to 7.5 psi between pulses. Too
short of an OFF time results in inadequate
cleaning pressure; too long of an OFF time
causes the pressure relief valve to discharge air.
5. Close the isolation petcock between the
positive-displacement blower and the gauge.
6. Check the cleaning drive for clockwise rotation.
7. Start the system as shown in Start-Up Sequence.
8. Adjust for proper airflow with the volume
control damper, if equipped.
9. Measure pressure drop and start dust-creating
process. Pressure drop will rise. Equilibrium
pressure is generally 3 to 4 "wg for seasoned
filters, although 1 to 6 "wg is considered normal.
Start-Up Sequence
1. Pneumatic conveyor or transfer blower, if
equipped.
2. Rotary airlock and screw conveyor.
with separate drives: Start simultaneously.
with common drive: Start.
3. Manifold drive and pulse timer.
